Nollywood actor Kelvin Ikeduba has expressed his frustration with fans who can’t seem to separate his personal life from his celebrity status.
In a viral video, Ikeduba shared his experience at an Amala restaurant where over five people pulled out their phones to record him while he was buying food. He found this behavior upsetting and emphasized that celebrities deserve to have a personal life without restrictions.
“Celebrity is just a title, we have our personal lives,” Ikeduba said. “Why are they recording me just because I came to buy Amala?”
He lamented that fans often view celebrities as gods or superheroes who shouldn’t be seen in certain places. Ikeduba’s experience highlights the challenges celebrities face in maintaining a sense of normalcy in their daily lives.
